When do polish bantams lay?

[floridasummer]

I've tried to search for this, with no results. I have 26 week old polish bantams and they aren't laying yet. When should I expect them to lay? I just got them two weeks ago and they weren't laying at their previous home.

Changes like moving will push the date back. Polishes aren't known for laying, so they may lay late to begin with.

Would it be possible for them to lay into the fall? We do live in Florida where it's hot up until about November

Laying isn't a matter of heat (though they'll stop of its too hot) but day light, but yes, most puleets lay through they're first winter

So you think they will definitely lay this year?

If they're young enough and female
